A new FDA approved therapy for diabetic neuropathy and wound care is now offered at The Health Centers. The Anodyne therapy system is a safe, non-invasive therapy that uses infrared photo energy to help reduce pain and improve circulation in patients with peripheral neuropathy.

Peripheral neuropathy, a disorder of the nervous system, is a long-term complication of diabetes that usually causes numbness, weakness, and pain, primarily affecting the arms, hands, legs and feet.

When your doctor recommends anodyne therapy, pads are applied directly to the skin and light energy emitted by diodes in the pads increase the nitric oxide levels in the blood. This is especially important for diabetics, who often have low levels of nitric oxide which leads to poor circulation, pain and numbness. This new treatment increases blood flow causing wounds to heal and improved nerve function.

Many patients using ANODYNE therapy achieve incredible results and actually experience wounds closing and function and feeling returning.
